After the rebirth, the cannon fodder left the plot

Chapter 18 Gu Linger

The only thing that Gu Jin is quite satisfied with is that the three acres of cotton planted have a good yield. Except for a few catties from each family in the village, there are more than 500 catties left. She beats [-] catties of it into cotton wool to make bedding and cotton clothes , and the rest were all sold out, and it was because of the cotton that the two of them had extra money in their hands.

"The money should be enough for you to study, right?" Gu Jin's eyes were full of light.

"I think, since you want to study, you should find a better private school." Shen Jingcheng asked her to keep the money from selling cotton, and said, "A good private school may be more expensive. Let's wait until next year. Let's buy some farm tools with the money. It will be useful when hiring people to work next year, and when the food is collected next year, I will go to find out where private schools are better, and it will not be too late to make plans.”

Gu Jin felt that what he said was quite reasonable, so he quickly collected the money happily.

Yes, reading must be better taught in a better private school, just like in the previous life when the second son of the Song Dynasty stopped at Tongsheng, didn't he also want to find a good private school to continue studying?It's a pity that Song Laoer had already married another person at that time, and she didn't want to waste money to make money to support a so-called elder brother, so Song Laoer didn't go.

"Then, when you buy farm tools, can you also ask where there are fruit trees?" Gu Jin said with some embarrassment, "I want to buy some fruit trees and plant them at home."

Seeing her like this, Shen Jingcheng suddenly felt a little uncomfortable, stared at her seriously and called out: "Ah Jin."

"Huh?" Gu Jin was a little apprehensive, can't it work?Did he think it was useless?Well, actually...

"If you want anything, you can tell me directly, you can ask me to do something as a matter of course, you don't have to be so careful, this is your home, you can do whatever you want with the money you earn." Shen Jingcheng said word by word. Talk to her slowly.

Her careful appearance always made him feel that she didn't regard this place as her own home, as if she could leave at any time, but this was her home, their home, and she didn't need to be like this at all.

"Ah?" Gu Jin was taken aback for a moment, and then asked: "Then, don't you think I'm greedy? Don't you think I'm always wanting to buy things that are useless?"

"No." Shen Jingcheng shook his head and said, "Our home, you can do whatever you want."

"Then, can I have an apple tree?" Gu Jin asked tentatively.

"Yes." Shen Jingcheng nodded.

"Then I still want peach trees."

"it is good."

"Then I also want acacia trees. You don't know that every time I use plant ash to wash clothes, I always feel as if I can't wash them clean. I remember that there were acacia trees in the place before. The weather here is similar to that there, and it should be able to grow."

"Okay, I'll ask someone to look for it."

"Then I still want to..."

Gu Jin talked more and more, and said everything he could think of. Shen Jingcheng listened so carefully from the beginning to the end, and nodded every time he heard something she said, as if he could do anything.

After the autumn harvest, the weather turns cold very quickly, and it seems that autumn turns into winter in the blink of an eye.

In the cold wind howling, because of the new quilt and the burning kang in the house, Gu Jin didn't feel the coldness at all, and even felt sweating in the house when the fire was burning.

In November, Lin Hu brought eight new immigrants. Shen Jingcheng handed over the immigration household registration information to Lin Hu. Fearing that the new immigrants and the old immigrants would not deal with it, he directly dragged Lin Hu to give the new and old immigrants every day. Each household is divided into a homestead of about one mu of land.

An eight-meter-wide east-west street is reserved in the middle of these homesteads, and then a six-meter-wide street is reserved for every two households in a row.In addition, a large piece of land was allocated around here as a spare homestead, in case the children of these people grow up and separate their households in the future. These areas are the public land of the village, and no one can open up wasteland here.

Lin Hu looked at the horizontal and vertical streets he drew, and then at the large area of ​​spare homesteads that he had drawn, the corners of his mouth twitched again and again, and finally he could only record these places in the fish scale book.

There's no way, this kid looks like he really has something in his stomach. I haven't seen other villages mourning and complaining this autumn. Is he the only one who has nothing wrong here?
Thinking of the chiefs of other villages who started crying when they saw him, he was extremely satisfied with this worry-free kid.In case one of himself disagrees, this kid turns around and refuses to accept those new immigrants, and the other one is unhappy and gives him a challenge, and then this village will be like other villages.

Lin Hu and Shen Jingcheng ran away after resolving the matter, for fear that he would make trouble for him again. Since then, Shimu Village has become 23 households, and Shen Jingcheng has become the real head of the village.

Being able to eat well and dress warmly, the days of winter pass quickly, and the New Year is coming again in a blink of an eye.

This time, Gu Jin and Shen Jingcheng did not celebrate the new year in a daze like last year, but solemnly observed the new year. They each changed into new clothes in the morning, sacrificed to heaven and earth, and ate dumplings before wishing each other another year older .

It was also on the sixth day of this year that Mrs. Wang gave birth. Gu Jin's heart skipped a beat unconsciously when he heard the baby's loud cry.

I just hope you're all well.

Mrs. Wang is still living in Diwozi. The woman who delivered her was a new immigrant in the village. The man’s surname was Zhang, and acquaintances would call her Shunziniang or Mrs. Zhang, because she would deliver babies when she was in her hometown. This is where I started my old business.

"Congratulations to Mrs. Jiashou, she is a beautiful little girl." Shun Ziniang looked at the newborn little girl with a smile all over her face.

She is a person who will come to things, although Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Jia, can't control their other Mrs., but when she sees Wang, she still calls out Mrs. Jia one by one.

Although Mrs. Wang was upset by her call, she couldn't be happy after hearing that she was a daughter again, so she waved her out and asked Gu Dani to clean up the bloody smell all over the place.

Although the Gu family has a good harvest this year, the weather is no longer suitable for building a house after the autumn harvest, so she still lives in Diwozi.

When Shun Ziniang saw that she let her go without giving any money, the smile on her face faded, but she had never seen anyone in this line of work, so she turned and walked out without saying anything.But he didn't want to run into Gu Changping who was waiting outside as soon as he went out.

After Gu Changping asked about the situation of Wang's mother and daughter, he immediately handed her two catties of grain.

"Sister-in-law Zhang is working hard. There is no money at home and only some food. Don't be disgusted with it, sister-in-law."

"Look at what Mr. Jiashou said, I just came here short of food, and you are sending charcoal in a timely manner. I am too happy." Shun Ziniang took the food quickly with a smile on her face.

"My surname is Gu. From now on, you can just call me by my name instead of Mr. Jiashou." Gu Changping said awkwardly.

He was always called that by people these days, and he felt awkward hearing it himself. He really didn't like being called that. It made him feel as if he was rejected by the villagers.

"Sure, then Brother Gu, I'll leave first. You are busy. You are busy." After finishing speaking, Shun Ziniang took the food and walked away quickly. When she turned her head, the smile on her face faded, and she sighed in her heart.

This guy surnamed Gu looks pretty good, but it's a pity that his daughter-in-law is flattering and has high eyes and nose.

In the floor nest, Wang looked at Gu Dani who was tidying up the floor quickly, and she didn't like everything.

I don't know what's going on, since she gave birth to this dead girl, she gave birth to a daughter, and the second one is still a daughter. Until now, this is the fourth daughter. Could it be that the next son was washed away by this girl?
Gu Dani felt Wang Shi's gaze cast on her, and she was so frightened that she didn't dare to breathe, she braced herself and cleaned up quickly, for fear that if she was too slow, she would be pinched by Wang Shi again.

The newborn Gu Linger's eyes were blurred and she couldn't see anything. She felt a little hungry, so she kicked her legs and whined twice, trying to attract people's attention and give herself something to eat.

In the end, she whimpered several times but no one came to hug her, so she burst into tears in anger.

Are the people in this room dead?She heard movement nearby, why didn't she hug her and give her something to eat?

Wang, who was immersed in the vicious circle of suspicion, was taken aback by the crying, and immediately heard Gu Changping asking outside: "What's wrong with the child?"

In fact, Gu Changping is not so taboo about his own woman having children, but when Wang gave birth to his first child, he made a serious statement not to let him in, and he has maintained this habit until now.

"It's okay, the child may be hungry." Wang quickly replied and hugged the infant Gu Ling'er, feeling bored for a while.

What are you crying for?Asked to be a girl, some will cry in the future.

Thinking of this, her actions were extraordinarily rude, she lifted her clothes and began to breastfeed Gu Linger.

Gu Ling'er only felt that something was stuffed in her mouth, and then her mouth and nose were blocked by something soft, and she struggled to spit out the thing in her mouth, feeling a little scared in her heart.

What is this for?Want to suffocate her?
